Esther Dingley

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I understand what a sensitive subject this is, and I do hope for the her safe return and I am keeping the family in my thoughts.

I have nominated this article due to WP:ONEEVENT.

Thank you everyone for your contributions and understanding. Missvain (talk) 22:22, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment - in the event that this is kept, it might be worth considering a move to a title like 'Disappearance of Esther Dingley' Spiderone  22:25, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Too early. Oaktree b (talk) 22:30, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Move to "Disappearance of Esther Dingley" per WP:ONEEVENT. The disappearance was widely covered by RS and Dingley was not notable prior to the event.-- SirEdimon Dimmi!!! 01:14, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Definitely WP:ONEEVENT - only coverage of subject exists in reference to her disappearance. We would rename/move the page only "in the event" (pun intended) that the event itself is notable per WP:EVENTCRIT. It's way too soon to ave any idea about the event's lasting notability. Per event crit. 2, events are likely notable . There's a weak claim to this because of coverage in the New York Times in addition to UK coverage, but that doesn't cut it IMO. HOWEVER, I think we should delay any decision on the notability of the event (and thus the feasibility of the move) per WP:RAPID as it is impossible to know the events lasting impact at this time.

 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWSPAPER. ONEEVENT doesn't really apply, as it would imply the disappearance is notable and should be kept. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:05, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per all of the above. I saw this in my news feed the other day. We're in danger of getting into missing white woman syndrome here. There's no article on Garland English, who went missing after falling off a volcano, or 400 missing Black women from Atlanta. Bearian (talk) 22:37, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
